Old Habits
Old habits die hard, they say. Indeed, this is true.
The last time I had a Mountain Dew was in June of 2003. That's a pretty good streak to maintain, almost two years. But alas, I found that some urges are hard to suppress for so long. Feeling that no harm could be done in having one, the other night, while working downstairs in the common room, I treated myself to a Mountain Dew.
I was downstairs earlier this evening, again writing furiously, and treated myself to another Mountain Dew. Between the two, I've felt no compulsion to drink more - I think that my Dew drought broke my addiction.
I think that now I can enjoy a Mountain Dew while writing, and I think I'll leave it at that. Like the one cigarrette that one artist allows theirself while working, I too will allow myself one vice - a single bottle of Mountain Dew. I'd say that's fair, right?

So, I was in class today and we read a script that included a reference to the song "The Cat Came Back." I immediately downloaded it upon coming home, remembering the animated short of the same name that I saw many years ago based on and including the folk song. Now, I realize that I must have a copy of that short. I saw a sleeved DVD version of it in Suncoast a while back and didn't think to buy it then - now I absolutely MUST have it. And I can't find it anywhere online.
So I ask this of you all: IF YOU COME ACROSS A DVD COPY OF "THE CAT CAME BACK," BY CORDELL BARKER, PLEASE PURCHASE IT AND I WILL REIMBURSE YOU. At this point, I'll pay up to $20 for the DVD and the cost of shipping. If you come across it while shopping - at Best Buy, Suncoast, wherever you go - purchase it and I will buy it back from you. Thanks much to all of you for simply keeping your eyes peeled!
